South Indian Ocean

>>> There’s an area of disturbed weather being referred to as Invest 99S, which is located approximately 253 NM east-southeast of Diego Garcia.

Animated enhanced infrared satellite imagery (eir) depicts a gradually consolidating llcc with flaring convection and elevated winds beginning to wrap along the northeastern periphery into the eastern quadrant as depicted in a 291531z metop-b ascat pass.

99S is currently in a marginally favorable environment for further development
with very warm (29-30 c) sea surface temperatures, moderate poleward outflow aloft, while also being placed within a pocket of lighter vertical wind shear (10-15 knots).

A factor that can negatively affect the system is a large dry air mass to the west that will be in the direct path of 99a as it continues to consolidate.

Global deterministic and ensemble models are in good agreement on a southwestward transit and slight intensification over the next 24-48 hours.

Maximum sustained surface winds are estimated at 18 to 23 knots.

The potential for the development of a significant tropical cyclone within the next 24 hours is low.
